More boot fitting

Most of the time I can easily lift my heel up in my boot a little bit, and it's pretty annoying. Not a lot of lift but still, it's noticeable and especially when doing nose butters and stuff. I'm not about to buy smaller boots because I just got them last season, and I'm still growing and all. Anything else I can do?

What kind of boot are you in? How long have you skied in them? (I saw a season, but was it many days?) Do you have footbeds? I can suggest a heel wrap, but need a little more information! :)

They are the Lange RX 100 LV boots, and I've been skiing in them since last year. There's not a whole lot about them online that I can find. https://www.levelninesports.com/lange-rx-100-lv-mens-ski-boots-2016?sel=5572&gclid=Cj0KCQiArenfBRCoARIsAFc1FqertCcknDo5cfYWs-ZcO_THK8vsHV1eT9UR8-JrNkmezkYfDLqeRzkaAi_tEALw_wcB

Okay! I’m familiar with Lange. Are you fit to your “true” fit and not a performance fit? I’m assuming so. Is the heel lift recent or has it happened Spence you got the boots. You may be due for a new liner if they’re pretty packed out. Do you have footbeds?

It's been since I got them. I don't believe I have a liner.

Bud you’ve got a liner. All boots have them. So, I’d grab a heel wrap, such as one that was linked above. I’m a big fan of the ankle wraps, (link #1) as opposed to c wraps, which target a different issue. If those don’t work i’d lokk into an intuition, if you feel your liner is packed out. :)
